US–Iran War | Disagreement Over Negotiation Terms
Tehran defended a proposal to resume peace talks within two days, demanding the lifting of the US naval blockade and sanctions, as well as an end to military operations, while Washington rejected the proposed Iranian conditions.
Qatari mediation continues its efforts to bring the two sides closer, but disagreements over their commitments before negotiations begin are still preventing a settlement. Maritime navigation through the Strait of Hormuz remains one of the main points of contention.
